Years ago, Minecraft introduced Emeralds into the game to be used as money. They can be traded with the Villager NPCs to buy and sell items.
Players eventually figured out ways to manipulate these trades in their favor, creating ways to farm the “fiat” emeralds in huge numbers from the NPCs.
As a result, nearly all popular community Minecraft servers, where real players interact online together, have resorted to using Diamonds as money. In game, Diamonds are more rare, and require more work to come by.
Even in online video games, the hardest money naturally emerges. A fascinating example.
